Sophomore Ann Goyke at #1 singles fought off multiple match points to defeat her counterpart in three sets, while the #3 doubles team of Sarah Brooker and Rachell Stoffel battled back from a 7-3 deficit to win 9-8. Both results proved instrumental in leading the Sabres to the win, their fourth conference win in the last five tries.

Marian is now 5-6 overall and has matched its conference win total from 2011 with a 5-3 mark in the NAC. Lakeland falls to 4-6 (2-6 NAC).

Following Brooker and Stoffel's comeback win to conclude the doubles portion of the match, the Sabres felt good, holding a 2-1 advantage thanks to an 8-5 win at #2 doubles by Reilly Connaher and Chelsey Will.

As if the #3 doubles comeback wasn't excitement enough, Goyke added to it with a three-set come-from-behind win as well. She found herself down 5-2 in the third set, but battled back to win 7-5. Connaher then swept her #2 singles counterpart, 6-0, 6-0.

Seemingly trailing 4-1, Lakeland got singles wins from #3, #4 and #5 before Stoffel was able to defeat her opponent 6-4, 6-0 to give Marian the 5-4 team win.

The Sabres will be back in action Wednesday, Sept. 18, when they take on Wisconsin Lutheran College at Hart Park in Wauwatosa. First serve is slated for 6 p.m.
